Interview wait times
Just got my O1 approved today. can anyone shed some light on the process after this. Official letter not received yet. I am in Australia and the Sydney consulate shows 180 days wait time for appointment (all other non immigrant visas other than student and tourist). So would I have to wait 6 months? or O1 category could also possibly have lesser wait times? Also if the consulate is closed due to Covid will I have to wait for it to resume operations to schedule an interview?
129F Approved
finally got through that step, can anyone that is familiar with Manila embassy why most 129Fs seem to take 2 to 4 months from consulate receipt to final interview while a good portion (maybe around 30% to 40%) take about 1.5 years? I did a search on visa journey and there are more that only spend a few months at Embassy (recently) but there a a lot of cases that go over a year and I just don’t see why. Since the majority seem to get through in 2 to 4 months it can’t be from expedited so how do some folks get caught with such a long delay?

by God’s grace..
it wasn’t an easy journey at all… there were several obstacles..
1) No one was there to help me to do all the paper works except my God ( didn’t have any idea about the process n procedures at all)
2) Got the RFE - they didn’t get my joint sponsor’s affidavit of support in my application package
3) EAD got approved and got the combo card but there were a spelling mistake
4) Since there were a spelling mistake in the card, couldn’t apply for SSN or for driving license
5) Interview was on March 11. On interview day, we reached the FO at 9:55am for the 10:15am’s interview. from 10am to 12pm, we were waiting in the lounge for our turn. and there were something wrong with the toilet drainage in the Field office and my Interview officer was really upset that she couldn’t have her food because of the bad smell coming out from the toilet which is next to her cabin.
6) Due to some technical difficulties, the officer was not able to access my file and she couldn’t even take the printouts of my application. Another officer helped her to do that.
7) Interview was really tough.. since we are newly married, they separated us and interviewed us for 2hours.. 2 officers were there to conduct the interview. at the end they became satisfied with our story.
8) Then, the officers couldn’t see my joint sponsor’s affidavit of support in my file (which I sent 2 times to the USCIS. first I sent it with the initial application package and then I sent it as my RFE response)
9) the decision was on hold for the past 1 and half months.
finally, the case got approved only by the grace of my living God. NO ONE or NOTHING CAN STOP GOD’S PLAN FOR YOU
